We present two cases of cerebral paragonimiasis in a 23-year-old Korean army soldier and in a 18-year-old Korean girl, respectively. The diagnosis was made on the basis of clinical, laboratory and x-ray findings. and was confirmed by the histopathological examination of the excised cyst.
P.W. skin test showed positive reaction, whereas C.S. test negative. X-ray study on skull revealed multiple globulated round cystic formations in occipital region. Two months after surgical removal of cysts, visual acuity and visual field were not improved. Pertinent literatures are reviewed.
